Bob and Doug McKenzie in Take Off! To the Great White North (eh?)

In the video Take Off! To the Great White North (eh?), Bob and Doug McKenzie are two of odd Canadian brothers who starred in “Great White North”, a show which was broadcast on second city television for the show’s 3rd season when it was broadcast on the Canadian Broadcasting Channel in in the early 80s. The character Bob McKenzie is played by actor Rick Moranis and Doug is created by actor Dave Thomas. Although brought to life originally as a sketch to both please and laugh about stupid Canadian content laws, the siblings transformed into a pop culture hit in both Canada and across the border. The brothers later became the focus of a huge comedy album, The Great White North, in 1981.
